In this way, Sakurajima Mai stood in front of her agent's mother, ready to face it calmly.

As a result, the other party seemed to have not seen her at all and perfectly avoided Sakurajima Mai who was about to collide with her.

"Ah?" Sakurajima Mai didn't expect that the other party would just pass her by so delicately. After passing by, the agent's mother walked straight towards Haruki.

Haruki was also confused. He had just confirmed that Mai Sakurajima could be seen, but now Mai Sakurajima's mother couldn't see her?

This is unreasonable.

Just as Haruki and Mai Sakurajima widened their eyes in surprise, Mai Sakurajima's mother had already arrived in front of Haruki.

"Did you call me here? Who are you and what's going on?"

Sakurajima Mai's mother crossed her arms and looked at Haruki with some dissatisfaction.

"My name is Haruki, and I'm Mai Sakurajima's friend."

"Whose friend?"

"Sakurajima Mai, you... don't know?" Haruki frowned, feeling that things were not simple.

"Who is she?" Sakurajima Mai's mother asked naturally, she really seemed to have no idea.

"She... should be your daughter, right? You have no impression of her at all?" Yaohui was still not giving up and wanted to confirm it again. Maybe if he asked a few more times, the other party would be able to remember her.

"What are you talking about? I only have one... Forget it, I don't know you, so there's no need to tell you all this. Since everything is fine, then..." Seeing that Haruki was saying things she couldn't understand, Mai Sakurajima's mother simply turned around and left.

"By the way, didn't you rush here because you received an email? The sender should be on it. You can take a look. We agreed to meet here today."

"Oh! That's right!" Sakurajima Mai's mother also remembered this. The possibility that a stranger like Haruki had her contact information was actually very low. Those who had her contact information were generally people in the circle. Since he was someone in the circle, it was impossible for her not to know him, so she took out her mobile phone to see what was going on.

"Is this it?" Sakurajima Mai's mother pointed to an email she had received not long ago asking her to come here for a meeting.

"But the sender is unknown, anonymous?"

Haruki also glanced at the screen of Mai Sakurajima's mother's mobile phone. The sender was clearly Mai Sakurajima, but her mother couldn't see it.

"I only remember that I barely squeezed out time to rush here. What on earth is going on?" Sakurajima Mai's mother also felt that something seemed to be wrong. There must be a logical loophole, but she didn't know where the specific problem was.

Haruki opened his mouth to speak but stopped. He didn't know what to say. Since he had received the email from Sakurajima Mai, then at that time or at that moment, Sakurajima Mai's mother must have remembered Sakurajima Mai, and even squeezed out time to come over. The other party was so busy, and the only thing that could disrupt her plan was that Sakurajima Mai wanted to make a comeback. So was there a problem on the way here?

"That..." Haruki was about to say something else, but Sakurajima Mai hurriedly ran to Haruki, hugged him and stopped him from speaking.

"That's enough, don't say any more."

"Huh? Why? I haven't figured out what's going on yet?!" Haruki didn't know what Mai Sakurajima was doing. He was stopped by her before he could even exert any strength. What did she want?

"Please, stop talking."

"Okay, since there's nothing else, I'll excuse myself. Don't pull these kind of ridiculous pranks again. My time is precious. Forget it this time. I don't want to waste it anymore."

Sakurajima Mai's mother yelled at Haruki in a slightly angry but very restrained tone, then turned and left the beach.

Only Mai Sakurajima was left standing on the beach holding Haruki.

Seeing that the other party had left, Haruki decided to forget about it today. He had originally wanted to confirm what was going on, but the current situation seemed to mean that there was no need to do anything unnecessary. Sakurajima Mai's condition seemed to have become more serious and rebounded.

Mai Sakurajima in Haruki's arms still had her eyes closed, and it seemed that she still found it hard to accept that her mother would ignore her.

There was no better way, so Haruki took the very depressed Mai Sakurajima and randomly found a few passers-by on the street to ask them if they remembered Mai Sakurajima. The answers he got were all no, and they all couldn't see Mai Sakurajima beside them.

The situation took a turn for the worse. Sakurajima Mai's symptoms had improved not long ago, but now they have worsened again.

Everyone's disregard for Mai Sakurajima is not just a disregard for their senses such as vision or hearing, but also an erasure from their memories, just like Mai Sakurajima's mother can't see anything when she looks at the [Sender: Mai Sakurajima] on the screen of her mobile phone, and no matter how much Haruki guides her, she won't remember her daughter Mai Sakurajima.

"Hey, where are you going?"

Haruki saw the very depressed Sakurajima Mai walking towards the train on her own, and hurried forward to grab her.

"Where are we going? Of course I'm going to your house. It feels like I'm really going to stay with you forever. You've made a fortune. You've become a beautiful girl superstar."

Haruki could see that Mai Sakurajima was in a very bad mood, but she still used very humorous words to tell Haruki not to worry about her.

"Didn't you say before that you'd only be ignored in a specific area? Then, do we need to try in another area? Maybe there's someone somewhere who can see you."

Chapter 339: The Unfrank Sakurajima Mai

It was like this before. Mai Sakurajima's illness was confined to a certain range. So is it possible that Mai Sakurajima is like this now?

With the mentality of giving it a try, Haruki planned to take Mai Sakurajima with him to try again. Just now, when Haruki grabbed Mai Sakurajima's hand, he also felt the magic power in the other party's body, but there was still none, and he still couldn't choose.

In a sense, Sakurajima Mai's condition has not improved. She is now like an injured person. Although the wound has been treated and bandaged, it still takes time to heal slowly, so it is necessary to try her luck in different areas.

"Let's go check it out together. If it doesn't work, then we can go home together. How about that?"

Mai Sakurajima was being held by Haruki's hand, with one arm stretched backwards, but her whole body was still facing forward.

"Even if it's confirmed, what's the use? Besides, I've figured it out. Even if I know that no one except you can see me and has forgotten me, I still won't be able to recover. I might as well go home and lie down."

Mai Sakurajima's tone was very bad, but not to the point of being furious. It was just that the blow just now was too heavy for her. She already knew that her [Adolescent Syndrome] had shown signs of improvement. She had packed up her things early in the morning and had no problem communicating with the people from the moving company. They could clearly see Mai Sakurajima and of course remembered her. But in the blink of an eye, it became like this. Who could bear it? Having hope and then making you despair, fate really knows how to play tricks on people.

"I've already told you, I'm going with you... I'll take you with me, and I'll be with you all the way. Just think of it as a trip together, or... didn't you say you'd go on a date with me? Let's just treat it as a date. We'll go together, and we'll live together from now on. So before that, it's normal for the two of us to go on a long trip together and have a date, right?"

Haruki still hoped that Mai Sakurajima could listen to him through this gentle persuasion, otherwise he might have to tie her up and take her with him.

"You are already married, but you are still so good at sweet-talking, you..." Mai Sakurajima's tone softened all of a sudden, and the cold jade hand in Haruki's hand also became much softer. Mai Sakurajima compromised.

"After all, it's a rare date. Besides, since we've both come here, isn't it too early to go back now?"

Hearing this, Sakurajima Mai also turned around and grabbed the hand that Haruki was holding hers.

"Well, since you've said that, and you still don't want me to go back, then I'll reluctantly continue dating you..."

Sakurajima Mai's face turned red, and when she said "date", she glanced away shyly. This could be considered shyness, after all, tsundere... tsundere has been retired!

The two of them randomly found a tram that went to another area. Of course, they only bought one ticket. What portable beautiful girl...

The facilities on the bus were okay, and the seats were relatively hard. Since it was just a casual ride, there weren't many requirements. Haruki and Sakurajima Mai sat side by side, and there weren't many other people on the bus.

"I heard that in Gifu Prefecture, the population here is second only to Gifu City, and it can be said to have the largest population." Sakurajima Mai was browsing her phone, checking the information of the destination. She had not been to many places. She was busy all day shooting commercials and photo shoots before, and later she couldn't stand other people's eyes, so except for going to school, she stayed at home during the holidays. She didn't know much about the outside world.

"Are you talking about the destination? It just so happens that I haven't been there either."

"Yes, that's where these two trains are going. They also say that the groundwater resources are very rich."

Haruki definitely didn't know about these messes, and he didn't have the energy to understand them. However, these two points were very similar to Haruki's hometown. During the rainy season, you only needed to use a shovel a few times to make something come out from underneath.

"Yeah, I like places like this too. Where the water quality is good, you can even drink it directly without any problems. Bottled water, to be honest, isn't very tasty."

"Yes! I think so too. When I was a child, I went to the countryside once and drank mountain spring water. It was so sweet that I will never forget it." Sakurajima Mai also recalled good memories and a rare smile appeared on her face.

"By the way, Haruki, can you... still see me now?" Sakurajima Mai looked at the scenery flashing past the window at a rapid speed, her tone very calm.

"I can see. For now... it should be fine for now."

"Then... can you hear me?" Sakurajima Mai continued to look at the scenery and asked Haruki in the calmest tone.

"Of course, I heard it very clearly."

"Do you still remember me?" Sakurajima Mai lowered her head slightly, her movements were very light, but it did not escape Haruki's eyes.

"I remember it clearly. You're Mai Sakurajima, a third-year high school student and a child star. You're still a star, but you're on hiatus and preparing for a comeback... You have a very awkward personality and aren't very outspoken..."

"No way!" After hearing Haruki say a few words about her shortcomings, Sakurajima Mai immediately turned around with a frown.

Yaohui thought for a moment and quickly added, "Don't worry about that. I'm different from others and I definitely won't be affected by you."

"I can see that you're very uneasy right now. Don't pretend in front of me. Relax. I don't consider myself an optimistic person. When I'm about to do something, I always think of the worst possible outcome. It's actually a strategy. If I can accept even the worst possible outcome, then I'll do it without hesitation."

Haruki looked into Sakurajima Mai's eyes and took the opportunity to grab her little hand which had become cold due to nervousness.

"We're just going to check. Even if no one there can see you or remember you, it doesn't matter. We can just go home together. It won't affect us at all, right?"

"I didn't say you can hold my hand." Sakurajima Mai noticed that the back of her hand became very warm. Although it was very comfortable, she still had to be tough.

"Still being stubborn?" Yaohui could see that the girl was still trying to be brave. "Give me your other hand, too. I'll warm it up for you."

Sakurajima Mai's little face turned pink instantly. After wanting to say something but stopping herself, she honestly stretched out her other hand in front of Haruki.

……

Chapter 340 Underwear Must Be Changed

"I really can't do anything about you, but let me tell you first, don't think of me as that kind of casual girl."

Sakurajima Mai very unfrankly placed her cold little hand in Haruki's hand, feeling the warmth in the other's palm.

Haruki didn't say anything extra. No matter how tough Sakurajima Mai's words were, her body was still very honest.

The empty carriage was very quiet. The only sound that could be heard was the regular sound of the wheels sliding across the tracks. After a while, Mai Sakurajima fell asleep leaning on Haruki's shoulder.

After a long time, they finally arrived at the train's terminal, which was also the place Sakurajima Mai had just inquired about.

As soon as he got off the car, Haruki took Mai Sakurajima around, asking others if they could see or remember Mai Sakurajima's existence. As expected, there was no positive or negative feedback in the end.

In the blink of an eye, it was dark. They had originally planned to return empty-handed, but there were no return trains. The nearest one would usually be around three o'clock in the morning of the next day. They had no choice but to stay in a nearby hotel for the time being.

"Is it really okay not to go back like this?" Sakurajima Mai looked at Haruki who took the room card from the front desk. Unlike herself, Haruki had a family after all. Just staying in a hotel outside with her... She always felt like there was something wrong.

"It's okay, it's not a big problem. I'll call her later and we'll rush back tomorrow." Yaohui didn't care too much.

"Is it too late? Aren't you a teacher too? Tomorrow is Monday. If you can't make it back..."

"It's okay, I have classes this afternoon." Haruki looked at the information on the room card and followed the directions in the hotel corridor to find his room. However, Sakurajima Mai's words still piqued his interest. "By the way, did I tell you I'm a teacher? Why are you still investigating me?"

"Who! Who investigated you?" Sakurajima Mai blushed as if her little secret was discovered. "I just happened to overhear your conversation a few days ago. Don't misunderstand me!"

"Oh? Is that so? Okay then..." Haruki didn't delve into it and continued walking forward.

Mai Sakurajima looked at the figure in front of her and became more and more angry. Why don't you ask again? Isn't this just coaxing a child?

"It's so cramped here!" Haruki opened the door, inserted the electricity card, and couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the space which was not much bigger than the bathroom in (Hiratsuka Shizuka)'s house. It turned out that he had lived a good life for too long and had forgotten his roots.

"That's all. After all, the land near the station is very expensive and it's good to have a place to stay." On the contrary, the big star Sakurajima Mai behind him adapted to the environment better than Haruki. Maybe Haruki really should reflect on himself.

"You stay here first. I'm going to take a shower. Rest early because you have to catch an early bus tomorrow." Mai Sakurajima put down her bag and pushed the door open and walked into the bathroom.

"Oh..." Haruki just responded with this sentence, but at this moment he was still struggling in his heart. Such a small space, coupled with the wrong height of the room, the overall feeling was really depressing, and Haruki even had no time to care about the beautiful girl who was about to take a bath next to him.

Mai Sakurajima, who had just entered, was exhausted from a day's run around. Before closing the door, she seemed to have thought of something and quickly leaned over the door and stuck her head out.

"Don't forget to call your family and let them know you're safe. You can chat with them in private while I'm showering. I don't like prying into other people's privacy!"

After saying that, Sakurajima Mai slammed the bathroom door shut, leaving Haruki alone in confusion.

After a moment of mental struggle, Yaohui finally calmed down his inner discomfort, "Well, let me call Jing first..."

In the small room, the ringing tone of the mobile phone kept playing, but there was no response from the other end of the phone.

"Why haven't you answered yet? Has he fallen asleep at this hour? Something's wrong!"

Haruki looked at the phone that no one answered, and an inexplicable worry suddenly surged in his heart. Haruki quickly opened the chat software, on which flashed several unread messages from Shizuka Hiratsuka and others.

Haruki didn't care about anything else and directly clicked on Shizuka Hiratsuka's avatar. There were two messages asking when Haruki would return, and nothing else.

Yaohui quickly replied, "I won't be back until tomorrow morning, around six o'clock if nothing goes wrong."

What Haruki didn't expect was that Hiratsuka Shizuka replied immediately, "Okay, I'll wait for you. So are you going to stay out tonight?"

Haruki felt his head buzzing. Just now, he even suspected that he was influenced by Mai Sakurajima, and that others could not see him or even forget him. However, it seemed that it was a false alarm.

Haruki's hands trembled as he continued to reply, "Yeah, I was thinking I could go back later, but there wasn't a bus, so I'll have to get up early tomorrow. Don't worry."

Hiratsuka Shizuka, [Okay, I understand. Let's come back tomorrow and have breakfast together. Good night.]

Haruki, [Okay, you too.]

Haruki was so nervous that he even forgot to ask why Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't answer his call, but at least it showed that he was not affected.

At this moment, the bathroom door opened.

“对了,内衣怎么办?”樱岛麻衣过着头巾探出头来看向表情怪异的遥辉。外-群“1-0·三;七·7。4·4.0·七八

"Hmm? What underwear?" Haruki was still thinking about what happened just now and didn't expect Sakurajima Mai to ask this.

"As for clothes, they probably won't dry in such a short time. It's not a big deal if you don't change your outer clothes overnight, but it will be very uncomfortable if you don't change your underwear."

"ok, I get it."

Haruki also understood what Mai Sakurajima meant, and quickly took Mai Sakurajima to a convenience store not far downstairs to buy new underwear.

"It always feels incredible!" The two of them walked side by side on the streets of a strange city, and to others they should be one person.

"Being in an unknown street like this feels like an adventure." Mai Sakurajima finally showed a rare relaxed expression. She had been tense all day.

"You've been to a lot of similar places before when you were filming things, right? And what about scene construction..."
